The next morning, Bo tries to get Lin to let him go on the boat, but Lin refuses, saying that he's not ready yet. He tells Bo to take him back to his "shit" , and to do whatever he wants with his life. Bo tells Lin that he taught him how to swim, and that he helped him feel happy again. Lin says that this is a "mutually beneficial" lesson, because he taught Bo how to feel happy, and he helped Bo feel happy. Lin tells Bo that there is a way to "decompress" for a man, a way that he can use to blow off all the tension in his relationship with Miss Jessel. He says that if he can "get the scoop," he'll be able to "blow it all his life" .
